I run the mingw port exclusively from CMD without a .sh association. So

  git status
  git fetch
  git commit
  git rebase

etc. instead of

  git-status
  git-fetch
  git-commit
  git-rebase

and I also use CMD's tab completion frequently, with leaves \ instead of
/ in the paths. I also quite often do

  git clone p:\public\repos\foo.git

and

  git clone p:/public/repos/foo.git

without a hitch.

Sure, you need a set of Posix tools (sed, grep, cat, wc, sort, ...)
including a Bourne shell that knows how to invoke other scripts by
parsing the interpreter from the first line (#!/bin/sh). (But the perl
scripts (git-remote) will probably work only with MinGW's perl.)
